Ebay Seller Funandgames925 Mickey Mantle Joe DiMaggio Autograph Photo Forgery COA GAI Mike Baker

Here's another set of Mickey Mantle/Joe DiMaggio forgeries on a photo with a COA from GAI (Mike Baker) listed on Ebay.

As we all know, GAI (bankrupt and out of business since 2009) "authenticated (cough, cough)" thousands of forgeries of Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, etc., with Mike Baker's name on the COA.

These Mickey Mantle/Joe DiMaggio forgeries are listed by Ebay seller Funandgames925.

If the buyer/seller of this garbage had done just a little bit of research, they wouldn't have purchased this crap.

This is why sellers of forgeries list their garbage on Ebay; they know the wannabe autograph collectors will purchase their forgeries like the below Mickey Mantle & Joe DiMaggio listed by Ebay seller Funandgames925.

Below is the link to our original article on GAI and Mike Baker.

I'm going to read the original article tonight when I home. Was there a time where GAI was good? It's a shame they ruin such an iconic Yankee photo by forging it. Mantle's rookie year, Joe D's last

There was a period when GAI was credible. Then it all went sour and the market was flooded with mass produced fakes bearing GAI stickers... usually signed by Mike Baker.
